Those are good. Lisa's Asolos died when we had the house heat treated for bugs. The heat destroyed the soles and they literally fell apart. Too bad because they were great boots otherwise.
Anyways more advice, but I'd look for something with some frontal / toe protection for when you kick into a rock or are submerged and don't see what you're walking into. Like a lot of boots have the rubber sole come up and over the toe a bit. Also would go waterproof, no reason not to IMO. And I'd stay away from the hiking low sneaker things, as if you're doing a long ass hike or going over uneven terrain, more ankle support and protection is really welcome.
I was a social worker in rural KY and wore Asolos everyday for 3 yearsJohnny_P wrote: ↑Tue Sep 25, 2018 12:57 pmThose are good. Lisa's Asolos died when we had the house heat treated for bugs.

One time I had to hike to a campsite where a vulnerable adult was living with his brother. They had a small camp fire going and the brother was squatting over the fire shitting into it. Thats efficiency.

Bought a new t-shirt this morning. Another Animal one. Military/Olive Green. One of my favorite colors to wear. Grabbed more of their multi-vitamin with it since I'm doubling up on my dose right now, and I should get some sample products too.

I think they were trying too hard to be weird / different / hilarious like the Phanatic. Which is weird. But it's not nightmare material. Plus everyone loves the Phanatic.
